Kashton

This newly invented name takes a cool short form—Kash/Cash—and adds the trendy -ton suffix, a la Ashton, Colton, and Weston. It made its first appearance on the US Top 1000 list in 2015 and has risen up into the Top 500 since then.

From its Latin root, Kash/Cash is an occupational name for someone who makes boxes, however, it is of course also related to the word "cash", as in money. The meaning of this newly coined name could then be "town of the box maker" or "money town".

Given to around 800 babies in a recent year, Kashton can also be spelled Cashton.

Kashton is also given to girls.

Pronounced KASH-tun.

As of October 2026, Kashton ranked #11686 in US births in 2023 SSA, peaked at #10109 in 2019.
